global, an energy company in algeria. according to his family, victor waited to take that contract until his children had finished school so he could attend their sporting events. this was not surprising for someone who is described as a dedicated family man and a fantastic co-worker. although it was hard to be so far away from his family, victor was excited to take the contract assignment so he could ensure a secure future for his family. that's just the kind of father and husband he was. the deal for this contract was 28 days on, 28 days off. and he was just 10 days in with only 18 days left to go. he was scheduled to come home to texas the day after his daughter's birthday. his life was stolen by those who seek to destroy americans. the radicals who inflict terror on all who believe in freedom. victor is survived by a loving family, including his wife, maureen, daughter, erin, and her son, grant. over the holidays, the closed lovelady family expressed concern for the safety of victor, but he reassured them saying, it's
